高分辨率卫星在我国环境保护领域具有巨大的应用潜力。为促进我国环境遥感应用水平的提高,结合我国环境保护工作特点,系统总结了高分辨率光学卫星、高分辨率雷达卫星和高光谱分辨率卫星在我国大气环境、水环境和生态环境保护领域中最新应用情况;指出我国目前主要存在应用系统化和业务化程度较低等不足;未来研究的重点包括高分辨率卫星图像的高精度处理技术、尺度效应和信息提取技术、高精度反演技术及地面真实性检验技术等方面。高分辨率卫星遥感技术的发展和我国高分辨率对地观测系统专项系列卫星的陆续发射,将大大提升我国环境监测监管的定量化和精细化水平。
High-resolution satellites have tremendous application potential in China’s environmental protection. In order to improve the application level of China’s environment remote sensing, the authors summarized the application status of three satellite perspective types of high resolution optical satellites, high resolution Radar satellites and hyper-spectral satellites in the field of atmospheric environment, water environment and ecological environment in combination with the characteristics of China’s environmental protection. The deficiencies of systematic and operational application are pointed out; the future key research fields seem to include the high accuracy imagery processing, scaling effect and information extraction, high accuracy inversion technique, ground truth verification and validation techniques. The technical development of high resolution satellites and remote sensing as well as the launch and utilization of China’s high resolution earth observation satellites will greatly improve the quantitative and refinement level of environmental monitoring and supervising in near future.
